HQ Montana 6 (VI) Depower Kite
HQ Montana 6 Depower Kite
Because HQ work hand in hand with a team of national and international riders, the HQ Montana 6 (VI) has been designed for the demands of the market. The all new Montana 6 is HQ's depowerable kite designed for the rapidly growing freestyle kite boarding market.The HQ Montana VI is a highly refined foil kite that combines stability and performance using developments in paragliding technology. A higher aspect ratio and more efficient profile provides increased de-power with quicker turning and faster flying speed.Constructed without stiff mylar laminate sail cloth, the canopy is better able to absorb gusts for greater stability. The Montana 6 (VI) is easy to handle while offering high end performance for the demanding pilot. The bar system has been redeveloped and the new molded chicken loop offers increased safety and user-friendliness.Riders will appreciate the redesigned molded chicken loop and the new TDS (Total Depower Safety) flagging line that provides an increased level of safety and simplified self-landing.
The control bar is clean and neat with single power strap equipped with a clam-cleat for easy adjustment. The depower strap is easy to reach at all times. The "top hat" safety release is easy to reach, now located under the bar and effectively dumps the kite on the center-line bridle, folding the kite back and killing all power.Even when fully powered up, bar pressure is light to moderate, giving good feedback and flying with one hand is easy.The HQ Montana 6 delivers performance and reliability, along with the value for which HQ is well known. It's a kite ideal for boarding on both land and snow offering good versatility and performance in a range of conditions.By using a much softer and water repellent fabric, air drag has been reduced and the performance increased significantly. A new more efficient profile and new shape have led to improved stability. Lift and hangtime meet the highest demands of Snowkiters and Kite Landboarders.
The new speed system in the bridle has increased depower and reduced backstall. Wake-style riders will love the unhooked performance. Whether you just want to cruise or stoke people with freestyle manoeuvres, the HQ Montana 6 (VI) offers the potential to satisfy your expectations. The new backpack is also more technical and offers attachment points for all kinds of boards, helmets and harnesses. Whether you want to explore the backcountry or focus on freestyle, the Montana V delivers.
